Rattle at 1000rpm or slow speeds but not idle or higher speeds

[chunkymonkey02]

Today i noticed that at slow speeds i.e. around a car park or at 1000rpm there is a very noticeable rattle that con only be heard within the cabin, i first thought maybe it was something in a tray but cleared it all out still happens cannot hear anything under the bonnet as too loud it isnt there at idle or much about 1000 rpm anyone else had this

Could it be this, loads of Fabia's seem to suffer with it http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/211144-just-where-does-the-rattling-come-from-in-12-tsi/

Had a rattle that happened at bang on 1000rpm on my 1.9 PD105.

Was the air intake where I joins the front of the car. Different setup to the Octavia but I notice this problem is also mentioned in that thread so I'd try there first.

It only happens when engines hot downside is I can't hear it with bonnet open only from the inside will have to figure out how to upload a video I did

Most noticeable at 20+ seconds when coming on and off throttle

Well it seems I have I have cured the rattle despite not being able to hear it in the engine bay even though it was loud inside the car it seemed to be the fuel pipes rattling on the chassis leg.

What did you do to the pipes to cure?

[chunkymonkey02]

Hi I made the fuel pipes the same height where the elbow is by moving them up and down a little until it stopped you really need someone in the car listening until it stops I assume by moving them side by side more it holds them in place better

I had the same problem last year. I uses cable ties and secured it to the body my sister had the same as well.

Others have had similar,

but then Skoda had a TPI on it and knew about it and the fix to have the Dealerships do.
